Gollum1 0 Posted May 16, 2005 I think everyone in the community will just call it OFP2. Mainly because it's easy, but it'll also stand as a tribute to OFP1."Armed Assualt" sounds like something EA would come up with. Yeah, it sounds really boring and like every other 'realistic' military game (or B-movie) out there. Even Operation Flashpoint is better, at least it's a bit memorable.

Acecombat 0 Posted May 16, 2005 Op Retaliation , seriously though there are plenty of good name candidates within the thing the community has produced. We need a name which reminds us that OFP has made a come back. Retalitaion sounds better. Armed assault geez , kinda reminds me of Ghost recon somehow not OFP. Gollum those tress look pretty similiar to me and i think those are OFP2 screens what else would they be doing on a OFP2 website otherwise? Yet i do agree overall theres a world of a difference between that screen and the other ones weve seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StealthTiger 0 Posted May 16, 2005 Comment from Codies when asked about whether they are still going to be the publishers?: Quote[/b] ]Question: I understand that OFP2 has not been cancelled but will Codemasters be publishing it? Can you please confirm whether Codemasters and BIS are still working together on this project? Also is the name now 'Armed Assault' ie. 'Armed Assault' or 'OFP2: Armed Assault' or is this something completely different? Are Codemasters aware of the alledged OFP2 screenshots that have been submitted to the BIS forum and can you comment on them? Are they Xbox versions of OFP:CWC or are they actually OFP2? Kind Regards.. Response: Codemasters have the rights to the Operation Flashpoint trademark and so any game entitled Operation Flashpoint 2 will be published by Codemasters. Operation Flashpoint 2 is currently due for release in late 2006. We cannot comment on any other games that Bohemia Interactive might be developing, nor on our current relationship with them, unfortunately. No further comment..

Evishion 0 Posted May 16, 2005 I simply bet that OFP2 = OFP2 and OFP: Elite (xbox) = OFP: Armed Assault that OFP on xbox changed name.. since it looks like OFP1 engine.. imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

7-62 0 Posted May 16, 2005 maybe your right! I think codemasters wont cooperate with bis for xbox, and they just make armed assault on their own Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing special here. Oh come on avon you know they could have simply written , "Yes we are their sole publisher or something". The way it was written sounded as if someone pissed off wrote it. I mean what else could their relationship with BIS be , if not publisher/developer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DBR_ONIX 0 Posted May 16, 2005 Sorry if I've missed someone saying this already, but.. The pictures from the Flashpoint2.com site animations are either Flashpoing on xbox, or OFP1 screenies edited. The ArmedAssault site was registered 5-ish days ago, they don't want to put the screenshots out then, as they wanted them out just before E3, but they made the site a few days before, as they wouldn't be able to while at E3 The reason they're so low quality is that they could alsmost be passed of as OFP2, whatever it's called.. (Basicly they used what they could release, random OFP 1 screenie, made it hard to see, and shoved ARMED ASSAULT over it, so they could have a site up for E3) Basicly the VTV thing isn't real OFP2, the E3 ones are, which are well above VBS1's graphics - Ben P.S. Where did those OFP2 screenies come from...??? P.P.S OFP2 : Armed Assault, your forgetting OFP1 was OFP:Cold War Crisis. So OFP2:AA is similar, no? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

esti_the_big 0 Posted May 16, 2005 is it possible that assumin codemasters and BI have parted, that codemasters are developing OFP2 now with some other studio? The pics we've seen on flashpoint1985.com are from codemasters new game, ofp2, they have the rights for that name and thus for that homepage. BI was owner of ofp2 homepage with tv, they parted from codemasters, they made a new site for their new game that was in development, theirs an auto-link to the aa site. the new game is called armed assault, maybe it was meant to be ofp2 1 or 2 years ago, but then the problems with codemasters started and they then parted, codemasters kept the name and started to mske its own ofp. i posted this thread a year ago... http://www.flashpoint1985.com/cgi-bin....t=39883 unfortunately, noone believed me... a year is enough time for codemasters to start the development of a new game and to get the graphics done like in those ofp2 pics....
